Infrastructure / Project Finance Career Path

Hey everyone, 

After browsing WSO for quite some time, I've noticed that this forum lacks conversation around infrastructure & project finance. I'd like to get the conversation started. 

If you're in infrastructure, what is your current title, what did you do before and where do you plan to be in the future? Structuring the discussion like this will be able to give individuals interested in the field more colour on sector and where they should begin.


As for me, I'm currently a Project Finance Analyst at a large cap renewable energy company. I'm a recent graduate with internship experience in asset management and private equity. I'm hoping to either stay in this role, move to the M&A side of the company or explore middle market infra PE options.

 

Quia qui quia at sequi sit. Quasi excepturi perferendis corrupti consequatur tempora. Eligendi aut ea veritatis omnis nemo quod et. Fuga aliquam atque eos soluta cupiditate ullam minus.
